Studies have shown that small injections of Botox do not circulate throughout the body and therefore do not impact an unborn baby. These studies, however, mostly focused on treatments done before pregnancy or during the very early stages. There is no research about the effects of Botox on a woman or her baby during the later part of pregnancy; therefore, in the name of caution, this procedure should be avoided while pregnant.

The treatment is performed in an easy two step process. First, a topical photosensitizing agent called Levulan (5-aminolevulinic acid or ALA) is applied onto the skin and left on for about 30-60 minutes. Then, it is treated with Blu-U light for about 8-10 minutes in order to activate it. These treatments remove sun damaged pre-cancerous zones and actinic keratosis.

By utilizing radiofrequency and laser energy while actively cooling the surface of the skin, Miami Beauty Clinic (MBC) can achieve a hair removal process that is virtually painless.

Typical effects last approximately 3-4 months. Injection of Botox causes temporary weakness in the targeted muscles and can vary from person to person.
